Gross Domestic Product, Fourth Quarter and Year 2020
(Advance Estimate)
Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 4.0 percent in the fourth quarter of
2020 (table 1), according to the "advance" estimate released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. In the
third quarter, real GDP increased 33.4 percent.
The GDP estimate released today is based on source data that are incomplete or subject to further
revision by the source agency (see “Source Data for the Advance Estimate” on page 4). The "second"
estimate for the fourth quarter, based on more complete data, will be released on February 25, 2021.

Seasonally adjusted at annual rates

The increase in real GDP reflected increases in exports, nonresidential fixed investment, personal
consumption expenditures (PCE), residential fixed investment, and private inventory investment that
were partly offset by decreases in state and local government spending and federal government
spending. Imports, which are a subtraction in the calculation of GDP, increased (table 2).

COVID-19 Impact on the Fourth-Quarter 2020 GDP Estimate
The increase in fourth quarter GDP reflected both the continued economic recovery from the
sharp declines earlier in the year and the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic,
including new restrictions and closures that took effect in some areas of the United States.
The full economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic cannot be quantified in the GDP
estimate for the fourth quarter of 2020 because the impacts are generally embedded in
source data and cannot be separately identified. For more information, see the Technical
Note.

The increase in exports primarily reflected an increase in goods (led by industrial supplies and materials).
The increase in nonresidential fixed investment reflected increases in all components, led by equipment.
The increase in PCE was more than accounted for by spending on services (led by health care); spending
on goods decreased (led by food and beverages). The increase in residential fixed investment primarily
reflected investment in new single-family housing. The increase in private inventory investment
primarily reflected increases in manufacturing and in wholesale trade that were partly offset by a
decrease in retail trade.
Current-dollar GDP increased 6.0 percent at an annual rate, or $309.2 billion, in the fourth quarter to a
level of $21.48 trillion. In the third quarter, GDP increased 38.3 percent, or $1.65 trillion (tables 1 and 3).
More information on the source data that underlie the estimates is available in the Key Source and Data
Assumptions file on BEA’s website.
The price index for gross domestic purchases increased 1.7 percent in the fourth quarter, compared
with an increase of 3.3 percent in the third quarter (table 4). The PCE price index increased 1.5 percent,
compared with an increase of 3.7 percent in the third quarter. Excluding food and energy prices, the PCE
price index increased 1.4 percent, compared with an increase of 3.4 percent.

Personal Income
Current-dollar personal income decreased $339.7 billion in the fourth quarter, compared with a
decrease of $541.5 billion in the third quarter. The decrease in personal income was more than
accounted for by decreases in personal current transfer receipts (notably, government social benefits
related to the winding down of CARES Act pandemic relief programs) and proprietors’ income that were
partly offset by increases in compensation and personal income receipts on assets (table 8).
Disposable personal income decreased $372.5 billion, or 8.1 percent, in the fourth quarter, compared
with a decrease of $638.9 billion, or 13.2 percent, in the third quarter. Real disposable personal income
decreased 9.5 percent, compared with a decrease of 16.3 percent.
Personal saving was $2.33 trillion in the fourth quarter, compared with $2.83 trillion in the third
quarter. The personal saving rate—personal saving as a percentage of disposable personal income—
was 13.4 percent in the fourth quarter, compared with 16.0 percent in the third quarter. Additional
information on factors impacting quarterly personal income and saving can be found in “Effects of
Selected Federal Pandemic Response Programs on Personal Income.”

GDP for 2020
Real GDP decreased 3.5 percent in 2020 (from the 2019 annual level to the 2020 annual level),
compared with an increase of 2.2 percent in 2019 (table 1).
The decrease in real GDP in 2020 reflected decreases in PCE, exports, private inventory investment,
nonresidential fixed investment, and state and local government that were partly offset by increases in
federal government spending and residential fixed investment. Imports decreased (table 2).
The decrease in PCE in 2020 was more than accounted for by a decrease in services (led by food services
and accommodations, health care, and recreation services). The decrease in exports reflected decreases
in both services (led by travel) and goods (mainly non-automotive capital goods). The decrease in private
inventory investment reflected widespread decreases led by retail trade (mainly motor vehicle dealers)
and wholesale trade (mainly durable goods industries). The decrease in nonresidential fixed investment
reflected decreases in structures (led by mining exploration, shafts, and wells) and equipment (led by
transportation equipment) that were partly offset by an increase in intellectual property products (more
than accounted for by software). The decrease in state and local government spending reflected a
decrease in consumption expenditures (led by compensation).
The increase in federal government spending reflected an increase in nondefense consumption
expenditures (led by an increase in purchases of intermediate services that supported the processing
and administration of Paycheck Protection Program loan applications by banks on behalf of the federal
government). The increase in residential fixed investment primarily reflected increases in improvements
as well as brokers’ commissions and other ownership transfer costs.
Current-dollar GDP decreased 2.3 percent, or $500.6 billion, in 2020 to a level of $20.93 trillion,
compared with an increase of 4.0 percent, or $821.3 billion, in 2019 (tables 1 and 3).
The price index for gross domestic purchases increased 1.2 percent in 2020, compared with an increase
of 1.6 percent in 2019 (table 4). The PCE price index also increased 1.2 percent in 2020, compared with
an increase of 1.5 percent. Excluding food and energy prices, the PCE price index increased 1.4 percent,
compared with an increase of 1.7 percent.
Measured from the fourth quarter of 2019 to the fourth quarter of 2020, real GDP decreased 2.5
percent during the period (table 6). That compared with an increase of 2.3 percent during 2019.
The price index for gross domestic purchases, as measured from the fourth quarter of 2019 to the fourth
quarter of 2020, increased 1.3 percent during 2020. That compared with an increase of 1.4 percent
during 2019. The PCE price index increased 1.2 percent, compared with an increase of 1.5 percent.
Excluding food and energy, the PCE price index increased 1.4 percent, compared with an increase of 1.6
percent.

BEA's news release schedule
NIPA Handbook: Concepts and Methods of the
U.S. National Income and Product Accounts

Personal income is the income received by, or on behalf of,
all persons from all sources: from participation as laborers
in production, from owning a home or business, from the
ownership of financial assets, and from government and
business in the form of transfers. It includes income from
domestic sources as well as the rest of world. It does not
include realized or unrealized capital gains or losses.
Disposable personal income is the income available to
persons for spending or saving. It is equal to personal
income less personal current taxes.
Personal outlays is the sum of personal consumption
expenditures, personal interest payments, and personal
current transfer payments.

Definitions
Gross domestic product (GDP), or value added, is the value
of the goods and services produced by the nation’s
economy less the value of the goods and services used up
in production. GDP is also equal to the sum of personal
consumption expenditures, gross private domestic
investment, net exports of goods and services, and
government consumption expenditures and gross
investment.

Personal saving is personal income less personal outlays
and personal current taxes.
The personal saving rate is personal saving as a percentage
of disposable personal income.
Profits from current production, referred to as corporate
profits with inventory valuation adjustment (IVA) and
capital consumption (CCAdj) adjustment in the National
Income and Product Accounts (NIPAs), is a measure of the
net income of corporations before deducting income taxes
that is consistent with the value of goods and services
measured in GDP. The IVA and CCAdj are adjustments that
convert inventory withdrawals and depreciation of fixed
assets reported on a tax-return, historical-cost basis to the
current-cost economic measures used in the national
income and product accounts. Profits for domestic
industries reflect profits for all corporations located within
the geographic borders of the United States. The rest-ofthe-world (ROW) component of profits is measured as the
difference between profits received from ROW and profits
paid to ROW.

Gross domestic income (GDI) is the sum of incomes earned
and costs incurred in the production of GDP. In national
economic accounting, GDP and GDI are conceptually equal.
In practice, GDP and GDI differ because they are
constructed using largely independent source data.
Gross output is the value of the goods and services
produced by the nation’s economy. It is principally
measured using industry sales or receipts, including sales to
final users (GDP) and sales to other industries (intermediate
inputs).
Current-dollar estimates are valued in the prices of the
period when the transactions occurred—that is, at "market
value." Also referred to as "nominal estimates" or as
"current-price estimates."

For more definitions, see the Glossary: National Income and
Product Accounts.

Real values are inflation-adjusted estimates—that is,
estimates that exclude the effects of price changes.

Statistical conventions

Updates to GDP

Annual-vs-quarterly rates. Quarterly seasonally adjusted
values are expressed at annual rates, unless otherwise
specified. This convention is used for BEA’s featured,
seasonally adjusted measures to facilitate comparisons
with related and historical data. For details, see the FAQ
“Why does BEA publish estimates at annual rates?”

BEA releases three vintages of the current quarterly
estimate for GDP. "Advance" estimates are released near
the end of the first month following the end of the quarter
and are based on source data that are incomplete or subject
to further revision by the source agency. "Second" and
"third" estimates are released near the end of the second
and third months, respectively, and are based on more
detailed and more comprehensive data as they become
available.

Quarterly not seasonally adjusted values are expressed only
at quarterly rates.
Percent changes. Percent changes in quarterly seasonally
adjusted series are displayed at annual rates, unless
otherwise specified. For details, see the FAQ “How is
average annual growth calculated?” and “Why does BEA
publish percent changes in quarterly series at annual
rates?“ Percent changes in quarterly not seasonally
adjusted values are calculated from the same quarter one
year ago. All published percent changes are calculated from
unrounded data.

The table below shows the average revisions to the
quarterly percent changes in real GDP between different
estimate vintages, without regard to sign.

Calendar years and quarters. Unless noted otherwise,
annual and quarterly data are presented on a calendar
basis.

Second to third
0.3
Note - Based on estimates from 1993 through 2019. For
more information on GDP updates, see Revision
Information on the BEA website.

Quantities and prices. Quantities, or "real" volume
measures, and prices are expressed as index numbers with
a specified reference year equal to 100 (currently 2012).
Quantity and price indexes are calculated using a Fisherchained weighted formula that incorporates weights from
two adjacent periods (quarters for quarterly data and
annuals for annual data). For details on the calculation of
quantity and price indexes, see Chapter 4: Estimating
Methods in the NIPA Handbook.

Annual and comprehensive updates are typically released
in late July. Annual updates generally cover at least the 5
most recent calendar years (and their associated quarters)
and incorporate newly available major annual source data
as well as some changes in methods and definitions to
improve the accounts. Comprehensive (or benchmark)
updates are carried out at about 5-year intervals and
incorporate major periodic source data, as well as major
conceptual improvements.

Chained-dollar values are calculated by multiplying the
quantity index by the current dollar value in the reference
year (2012) and then dividing by 100. Percent changes
calculated from real quantity indexes and chained-dollar
levels are conceptually the same; any differences are due to
rounding. Chained-dollar values are not additive because
the relative weights for a given period differ from those of
the reference year. In tables that display chained-dollar
values, a "residual" line shows the difference between the
sum of detailed chained-dollar series and its corresponding
aggregate.

Unlike GDP, advance current quarterly estimates of GDI and
corporate profits are not released because data on
domestic profits and on net interest of domestic industries
are not available. For fourth quarter estimates, these data
are not available until the third estimate.
GDP by industry and gross output estimates are released
with the third estimate of GDP.

1. Real gross domestic income is gross domestic income deflated by the implicit price deflator for gross domestic product.
Note. Users are cautioned that particularly for components that exhibit rapid change in prices relative to other prices in the economy, the chained-dollar estimates should not be used to measure the component's relative importance or its contribution to
the growth rate of more aggregate series. For accurate estimates of the contributions to percent changes in real gross domestic product, use table 2.

1. Real gross domestic income is gross domestic income deflated by the implicit price deflator for gross domestic product.
Note. Users are cautioned that particularly for components that exhibit rapid change in prices relative to other prices in the economy, the chained-dollar estimates should not be used to measure the component's relative importance or its contribution to
the growth rate of more aggregate series. For accurate estimates of the contributions to percent changes in real gross domestic product, use table 2.
